On Saturday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed an American proposal for Kiev to cede the Donbas region in the east of the country to Russia, in exchange for NATO membership, according to the American "Bloomberg" agency.
Zelensky said: "This proposal indicates a possible change in Washington's negotiating approach," at a time when President Donald Trump's administration is seeking to make progress in peace talks aimed at ending the Russian-Ukrainian war.
He continued: "We are discussing with our partners a comprehensive security package that can be presented to us in negotiations," noting that the package proposed by Washington includes specific security guarantees from NATO and the European Union, in addition to building a strong Ukrainian army that has a sufficient number of soldiers, weapons and funding for a certain period of time, as well as a clear source economic recovery plan.
Zelensky emphasized that if the American side, along with other NATO partners, approves this proposal, he will consult with the Ukrainian community about its acceptance or rejection.
